About This Activity
Little Bear Nature Walks With Chrissy Larson Ages 0-5 (Adult required to attend with child) 10:00 a.m. - 11:15 a.m. Fee per child (adults and children under 18 months are free): Tier A-$15 | Tier B-$13 | Tier C-$11 Little Bear Nature Walks are guided, open-ended walks that allow toddlers, preschoolers and their caregivers explore nature in an age-appropriate way. While on the walk, children borrow a backpack filled with simple tools for exploring and are led by a preschool educator. Children investigate plants and animals, engage with rocks, soil and water, and use their imaginations to play with the world. Walks incorporate observation, inquiry, and sensory learning. Each has a loose theme and includes a trail-side storytime. Come along with us! Walks are outdoors and take place unless there is extreme weather. Please dress in layers and wear rain gear and boots when appropriate (parents too!) Pre-registration required. Backpacks and supplies are prioritized for registered children ages 18 months - 5 years. Younger children are welcome at no charge. Each walk is limited to 12 children. Limit of 2 children per adult. Accessibility notes: All walks meet at local conservation areas and public lands, many of which require participants to navigate boardwalks, bridges, puddles, roots, soft-surface trails and uneven terrain. Educators move slowly and keep the pace family-friendly, but in many cases the trails are not suitable for strollers or other mobility devices.
